At 46, Narbonne's outgoing mayor, independent Bertrand Malquier, unveiled his running mates two months before the first round of the 2026 municipal elections. Succeeding Didier Mouly who died in 2023, he aims to retain his seat against a divided left and two far-right lists, including the National Rally. He plans to continue the Mouly family legacy in this city of 56,700 residents.
